Tavros is sitting there, trying to devise a way to keep the snakeling. Maybe they could pretend the egg never hatched, or it broke, or they lost it. He had this habit of getting more attached to animals than people so he doesn't at all want to let this baby that he helped hatch. Learning the stabilization and incubation spells to help was worth it though, especially now that he gets to see it come into the world.

He looks over at Gamzee when he suddenly sounds off put, brows furrowed and concerned. "Is something-"

Oh. Oh..

It's never been that Tavros hadn't been interested, he'd just been nervous about the idea of being in a relationship. Scared even. Every attempt at anything had ended so horribly before it even started, he'd got it into his head that he wasn't worth the effort so he gave up trying.

Looking at Gamzee now makes his face turn red and his heart to little flippy things in his chest that he's not even remotely used to feeling. Talk about flying, he's practically soaring all of a sudden.

"...Wrong?"
